I like big racing like a lot of other people reading this, but I found something special when I attended my first Optima Search for the Ultimate Street Car event. For those of you somewhat familiar with the series, you may think its all pro touring muscle cars or strictly an american car only […]

The year shot by for me. Seems like yesterday I was heading out to my first event of 2015, and here we are already staring down the throat of the 2016 season. Where did the time go? A dozen shooting days at Laguna Seca. Another dozen more at Race Sonoma (that’s what they call Sears […]
The Opy Hiro, Multi Purpose Racer has had it’s ups and down since the project began late last year. ECU problems, and constant overheating issues at the top of the list. Unfortunately, Lars was unable to locate a simple source for the engine overheating issue that’s been plaguing the build since the beginning. So, after […]

It’s certainly been an interesting year. Not always great, sometimes downright difficult, but not bad, either. It seemed to go by much faster than previous years, but maybe that’s attributed more to my age, than space-time actually accelerating in front of me. I found myself surrounded by incredible people throughout the year. Many influenced the […]
WTAC is probably the only event in the world where near-stock cars compete on the same track, as part of the same event, with cars costing several times as much and clad only in carbon fibre. It is testament to the openness of the event that something as totally wingless as this 86 above… …can […]
PRE-DAWN The action on race day starts on the way to the pit area. Fans are lining up in one lane of the road and it spills all the way down to the nearby highway in Cascade. You have to work your way through just to queue in line, then work your way up to […]
I get lucky now an then and get a chance to sit down with my racing heroes. Paul Dallenbach is one of those people. I got double-lucky today. I was on m way home to the Bay Area from our family vacation in San Diego and we just happened to be driving through the LA […]
